SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Beyond Van Gogh, the popular, immersive art exhibit will soon make its way to Sacramento

In this exhibit, the art comes alive and flows across multiple surfaces, appearing and disappearing. 

"The show is projected on every surface around you, this makes you feel as though you have stepped directly into a Van Gogh painting," according to the website.

More than 300 of Van Gogh's works are featured in the exhibit including “The Starry Night,” “Sunflowers” and “Café Terrace at Night.”

There is also an original score that accompanies the art. The show will take about one hour and is walk-through style, according to the website

"Beyond Van Gogh is visually stunning; guests will be amazed at the scale and the way the images come to life before their very eyes," Van Gogh Sacramento wrote in an Instagram post.
